Chapter 183 It finally came back.
"That would be too troublesome. Let's just call the Xuan Snake back. We might need its help when facing the White Demon Eagle." Zhu Meng looked at Jiang Han with a hint of annoyance in his eyes, but on the surface he still looked pleading.
Seeing that Zhu Meng had already gone this far, Tang Zhong couldn't very well refuse, so he looked at Tang Yue and said, "Let's bring the Black Serpent back. This fierce battle might really need its help."
"The Black Serpent hasn't finished its molting period yet, so wouldn't it be inappropriate to bring it back now?" Jiang Han said again.
Tang Zhong frowned slightly, his expression showing displeasure. He didn't understand why Jiang Han was doing everything he could to prevent the Xuan Snake from returning. Zhu Meng had already promised not to harm the Xuan Snake, so why was he still preventing it from returning? With them guarding the Xuan Snake through its molting period, what problems could there be?
"I, Hei Yu, and the others will take turns guarding the area. Even if Xuan She returns, nothing too serious will happen," Tang Zhong said.
Jiang Han was so angry with Tang Zhong that he wanted to smash his head open with a stool. He kindly advised against letting Xuan She return, but Tang Zhong kept saying it was fine, it was fine. Who the hell are you on? If Xuan She really came back, that would be a disaster. Tang Yue saw the puzzled look in Jiang Han's eyes and finally listened to Tang Zhong and agreed to call Xuan She back, at West Lake.
If it weren't for the fear of another tribulation, Jiang Han would definitely have exposed everything about Zhu Meng and Luo Mian. Damn it, he's so angry.
During the meeting, Jiang Han repeatedly humiliated Zhu Meng, making Zhu Meng lose face. After the meeting, Zhu Meng found an excuse to lock Jiang Han up. Jiang Han had no choice but to submit to the palace guards in order to avoid a direct confrontation.
However, just as Jiang Han was about to be captured by the palace guards, Tang Yue threatened Zhu Meng with not summoning the Xuan Snake to release Jiang Han. In order not to affect the smooth progress of the snake-slaying plan, he had no choice but to release Jiang Han temporarily.
A cool breeze blew across West Lake at night, and the lake surface shimmered. But no one appreciated this beautiful scenery. The Su Causeway, which runs through West Lake, was much quieter than usual. On the long Su Causeway, Zhu Meng and his chief guard stood at the edge, both watching Tang Yue playing the bone flute. Jiang Han looked at Tang Yue playing the bone flute and sighed silently.
As the bone flute played, a bluish-black haze appeared in the night sky. The mist, like a light veil, enveloped the entire night sky. As the bluish-black mist increased, the moonlight was obscured, and the entire sky above West Lake was pitch black.
On the Su Causeway, Zhu Meng, Wu Pingjing, Luo Mian, Tang Zhong, Tang Yue, Li Tian, Leng Qing, and others looked up at the dark blue mist above West Lake, while Jiang Han coldly watched the palace guards in the distance.
"It used to appear in the bustling city like this, and then suddenly disappear without a trace," Leng Qing said slowly.
"It's here." A smile appeared on Tang Yue's face as she looked at the bluish-black mist.
Jiang Han looked at the dark blue mist in the night sky and felt a surge of emotions. The Xuan Snake had finally returned. Even though it hadn't fully molted, it had answered Tang Yue's call and come back. Perhaps this was the Xuan Snake's love for Tang Yue, just like a father's love for his daughter. No matter what his daughter needed, he would try his best to satisfy her.
You've protected her for so long, it's time for me to repay you on her behalf.
Jiang Han stared intently at the enormous figure that descended from the dark sky. The Xuan Snake's massive body plunged into West Lake, creating towering waves on the surface. The lake water swirled into the air, turning into a torrential downpour. Only after the lake calmed down could the people on the Su Causeway clearly see the enormous size of the totem Xuan Snake.
In the lake, the totem snake slowly approached the Su Causeway again. Seeing the snake swimming towards her, Tang Yue on the Su Causeway shouted, "Big guy, have you finished molting?"
The black snake then raised its head high on the edge of the Su Causeway, its eyes, several times larger than lanterns, looking down at everyone on the Su Causeway.
Sensing that the Xuan Snake's aura was not as strong as usual, Luo Mian's eyes flashed with a sinister light as he said, "It hasn't fully shed its skin yet and is currently in a weakened state. Prepare to make your move."
Zhu Meng glanced at Luo Mian, then slowly raised his right hand and swung it down forcefully, shouting, "Slay the snake demon!!"
After Zhu Meng gave the order, the palace guards and judges who had been waiting for a long time on the Su Di River rushed forward.
"Activate the Thunder Ring Punishment Formation! We must not allow him a chance to escape!" Luo Mian shouted the order.
The sudden turn of events caught Tang Zhong, Tang Yue, Li Tian, Leng Qing, and the others on the Su Causeway off guard. Tang Yue looked at the palace guards and judges rushing up with disbelief in her eyes. After regaining her senses, she rushed forward to try to stop the palace guards and judges, but she was quickly subdued by the people who rushed up.
"What are you doing?" Tang Yue cried out in panic as she was restrained by the two judges.
"Tang Yue, you've done very well. Leave the rest of the snake-slaying to us," Luo Mian said with a smile, stroking his goatee.
"This hidden danger must be eliminated promptly. Only by eliminating it can the plague in Songcheng be completely eradicated," Zhu Meng said with a grim expression.
Tang Yue was struck dumb by these words. Zhu Meng hadn't said anything like that in the conference room. She hadn't expected that Zhu Meng and Luo Mian would team up to deceive her. If she had listened to Jiang Han back then, things wouldn't have turned out this way. But it was too late for regrets now.
"Release her," Jiang Han said coldly, looking at the two judges who were restraining Tang Yue.
The two judges ignored Jiang Han's words. Silver starlight shone from Jiang Han, and then the two judges flew backward uncontrollably. After arriving at Tang Yue's side, Jiang Han reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. However, looking at Jiang Han in front of her, Tang Yue couldn't stop her tears, which kept sliding down her cheeks.
"Activate the Lightning Punishment," Luo Mian commanded once more.
Standing on the shore of West Lake, the palace guards and judges each began to draw a star map of the lightning element. The violent lightning element continued to gather throughout West Lake, and gradually the star maps were stacked together to form a dazzling constellation. Constellations continued to form in the sky, and when the seventh constellation was formed, the seven constellations connected together to transform into a magnificent star palace that enveloped the sky above West Lake.
Gazing at the countless clouds of lightning gathering in the sky, Tang Yue clung to Jiang Han, crying out, "Stop! Stop it!!!"
"Yes, I will make them stop. Don't cry anymore, it won't look good if you keep crying." Jiang Han reached out again to wipe away Tang Yue's tears, and his wings of light unfolded behind him.
"What are you doing?" Tang Yue cried out in alarm after noticing the wings of light unfolding behind Jiang Han.
Jiang Han turned around, his wings flapping rapidly. Soon, someone noticed Jiang Han taking off. Zhu Meng, seeing Jiang Han flying in the air, shouted angrily, "Kid, what are you doing? Are you crazy?!"
Jiang Han glanced at Zhu Meng and said calmly, "It's on behalf of Tang Yue to repay Xuan She for her years of care."
After saying that, Jiang Han rushed towards the dazzling star palace in the night sky. The nine lightning-formed halberds slowly pierced the star dust. As the lightning halberds, carrying earth-shattering lightning power, pierced towards the totem serpent, Jiang Han arrived above the serpent's head. Facing the terrifying lightning halberds, Jiang Han directly switched to the Thunder Dragon Armguard and condensed a huge barrier above.
Nine thunder halberds crashed down, slamming into the barrier formed by the Thunder Dragon Armguard. The violent thunderous power surged wildly across the barrier, quickly filling the Thunder Dragon Armguard with more than half of its required energy. Facing this superior magic, Jiang Han dared not be careless. A series of azure star charts appeared around him, eventually superimposing to form an ice and snow constellation. A massive frozen coffin formed above Jiang Han's head and, under his control, directly met the thunder halberds. However, in less than a breath, the frozen coffin was shattered by the thunder halberds.
